Geoffrey Burgess

13 – Your Dangerous Stars

Geoffrey Burgess was born in the United States and completed a Bachelor of Arts Majoring in English at the University Connecticut in 2002. At that point he aspired to develop a writing career, and travelled to Europe, settling in Dublin, where he suddenly realised every barman and taxi driver told stories better than he did.

After many years or reading and simply listening, his interest in writing was rekindled. By that time he had settled in Sydney, where he still lives by the beach with his 3 children. He has written a body of poetry, several short stories, and something he purports to be a novel. He performs regularly at various open mic and poetry nights, and is developing an increasing interest in the power of the spoken word. “Your Dangerous Stars’ represents the first of Geoff’s work to be published.
